Last week, approximately 150 bodies of migrant refugees from Palestine and Syria — many of them children — washed up on the Libyan side of the Mediterranean Sea. The refugees drowned to death after their boat capsized, likely heading to Europe to escape desperate situations in their home countries. The surfacing of these photos came on the heels of the discovery of 71 migrant refugee corpses — 59 men, 8 women, and 4 children — found in the back of a truck in Austria. Facebook user Khaled Barakeh uploaded the photos to facebook in an album. Within the first 24 hours, the album received 90,000 shares before Facebook deleted them. Europe hasn’t seen a refugee crisis of this magnitude since the end of World War II, when roughly half a million displaced Jews liberated from concentration camps had no place to call home.
